Recently I worked in Kivio (from KDE 3.2.1; program was compiled from ports) with mouse and keyboard. During the moving object with pressed Ctrl key the bug occured. Mouse cursor stalled on the screen and didn't answer on mouse moving or pressing it's keys. I switched to a console, but mouse didn't work there even the cursor was not visible. I restated moused, cursor appeared, but didn't move with mouse and disappered on keyboard pressing. So this bug isn't in moused but in mouse ports. Is there way to reset mouse port or reinitialize device in devfs? I deleted /dev/psm0, after that moused didn't start with message "Device /dev/psm0 not found". Is it possible to recreate device "on the fly"? Such as /dev/da0 can appear and disapper on attaching and detaching flash bar drive. I guess there must be a system call to rescan devices. I found only one - reboot :( System: i386 CPU - Celeron 1.7GHz FreeBSD 5.2.1-RELEASE, installed 5.2 and then recompiled with 5.2.1 sources. Mouse PS/2. Thank you. -- Best regards, Eugene mailto:el2000@km.ru
